Title: Foam Roller
Post by: unreasonablereasons on November 26, 2023, 11:02:45 AM
I swear I think this thing keeps me from going stiff like a corpse. Its a love/hate relationship and on some parts its pretty painful, but benefits are so good. Anyone use one that has the rubber studs on it, like a tractor tire? Considering getting one

To be honest I always wanted to try one but never did....I`ve only heard good  things about them though.

Another thing I  always promised myself that I would do is start stretching.............. .....NOPE......I`m like the fucking Tin Man in The Wizard Of Oz...........oil,oil, oil me please!  :D!

Lots of getbiggers admitting to maintaining long, studded, rubber implements "for foam rolling" in this thread.

Seriously, I do have a foam roller but don't use it much.  Probably should.

Only externally of course.  ;)

Some folks say not to use it on back for some reason (not sure why) I know it helps me loosen shit up, so I use it.

I follow Sports Men Academy IG channel  https://www.instagram.com/sportsmenacademy/
the flexibility and mobility exercises have made a massive difference (thats an understatement) in my life. From being barely able to touch my knees to much more flexible and mobile
